Analyze the different types of amplifiers, operation and its characteristics Design circuits like amplifiers, oscillators using the transistors diodes and oscillators UNIT-I Single Stage BJT Amplifier Based on number of stages Depending upon the number of stages of Amplification, there are Single-stage amplifiers and Multi-stage amplifiers. Single-stage Amplifiers −This has only one transistor circuit, which is a single stage amplification. Multi-stage Amplifiers −This has multiple transistor circuit, which provides multi- stage amplification. Based on its output Depending upon the parameter that is amplified at the output, there are voltage and power amplifiers. Voltage Amplifiers −The amplifier circuit that increases the voltage level of the input signal, is called as Voltage amplifier. Power Amplifiers −The amplifier circuit that increases the power level of the input signal, is called as Power amplifier. Based on the input signals Depending upon the magnitude of the input signal applied, they can be categorized as Small signal and large signal amplifiers. Small signal Amplifiers −When the input signal is so weak so as to produce small fluctuations in the collector current compared to its quiescent value, the amplifier is known as Small signal amplifier. Large signal amplifiers −When the fluctuations in collector current are large i.e. beyond the linear portion of the characteristics, the amplifier is known as large signal amplifier. Based on the frequency range Depending upon the frequency range of the signals being used, there are audio and radio amplifiers. Audio Amplifiers −The amplifier circuit that amplifies the signals that lie in the audio frequency range i.e. from 20Hz to 20 KHz frequency range, is called as audio amplifier. Malla Reddy College of Engineering and Technology(MRCET) Department of ECE Page 1 Power Amplifiers −The amplifier circuit that amplifies the signals that lie in a very high frequency range, is called as Power amplifier. Based on Biasing Conditions Depending upon their mode of operation, there are class A, class B and class C amplifiers. Class A amplifier − The biasing conditions in class A power amplifier are such that the collector current flows for the entire AC signal applied. Class B amplifier − The biasing conditions in class B power amplifier are such that the collector current flows for half-cycle of input AC signal applied. Class C amplifier − The biasing conditions in class C power amplifier are such that the collector current flows for less than half cycle of input AC signal applied. Class AB amplifier − The class AB power amplifier is one which is created by combining both class A and class B in order to have all the advantages of both the classes and to minimize the problems they have. Based on the Coupling method Depending upon the method of coupling one stage to the other, there are RC coupled, Transformer coupled and direct coupled amplifier. RC Coupled amplifier − A Multi-stage amplifier circuit that is coupled to the next stage using resistor and capacitor (RC) combination can be called as a RC coupled amplifier. Transformer Coupled amplifier − A Multi-stage amplifier circuit that is coupled to the next stage, with the help of a transformer, can be called as a Transformer coupled amplifier. Direct Coupled amplifier − A Multi-stage amplifier circuit that is coupled to the next stage directly, can be called as a direct coupled amplifier. Based on the Transistor Configuration Depending upon the type of transistor configuration, there are CE CB and CC amplifiers. CE amplifier − The amplifier circuit that is formed using a CE configured transistor combination is called as CE amplifier. CB amplifier − The amplifier circuit that is formed using a CB configured transistor combination is called as CB amplifier. Malla Reddy College of Engineering and Technology(MRCET) Department of ECE Page 2 CC amplifier − The amplifier circuit that is formed using a CC configured transistor combination is called as CC amplifier.

  • Optoelectronic Oscillators: Recent and Emerging Trends Optoelectronic Oscillators: Recent and Emerging Trends
    Optoelectronic Oscillators: Recent and Emerging Trends Optoelectronic Oscillators: Recent and Emerging Trends October 11, 2018 Afshin S. Daryoush(1), Ajay Poddar(2), Tianchi Sun(1), and Ulrich L. Rohde(2), Drexel University(1); Synergy Microwave(2) Highly stable oscillators are key components in many important applications where coherent processing is performed for improved detection. The optoelectronic oscillator (OEO) exhibits low phase noise at microwave and mmWave frequencies, which is attractive for applications such as synthetic aperture radar, space communications, navigation and meteorology, as well as for communications carriers operating at frequencies above 10 GHz, with the advent of high data rate wireless for high speed data transmission. The conventional OEO suffers from a large number of unwanted, closely-spaced oscillation modes, large size and thermal drift. State-of-the- art performance is reported for X- and K-Band OEO synthesizers incorporating a novel forced technique of self-injection locking, double self phase-locking. This technique reduces phase noise both close-in and far-away from the carrier, while suppressing side modes observed in standard OEOs. As an example, frequency synthesizers at X-Band (8 to 12 GHz) and K-Band (16 to 24 GHz) are demonstrated, typically exhibiting phase noise at 10 kHz offset from the carrier better than −138 and −128 dBc/Hz, respectively. A fully integrated version of a forced tunable low phase noise OEO is also being developed for 5G applications, featuring reduced size and power consumption, less sensitivity to environmental effects and low cost. Electronic oscillators generate low phase noise signals up to a few GHz but suffer phase noise degradation at higher frequencies, principally due to low Q-factor resonators.

Introduction Electronic circuitry has undergone tremendous changes since the invention of a triode by Lee De Forest in 1907. In those days, the active components (like triode) and passive components (like resistors, inductors and capacitors etc.) of the circuits were separate and distinct units connected by soldered leads. With the invention of the transistor in 1948 by W.H. Brattain and I. Bardeen, the electronic circuits became considerably reduced in size. It was due to the fact that a transistor was not only cheaper, more reliable and less power consuming but was also much smaller in size than an electron tube. To take advantage of small transistor size, the passive components too were greatly reduced in size thereby making the entire circuit very small.

Stave, B.Sc. A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Milwaukee, Wisconsin August 2019 ABSTRACT ANALYSIS OF BJT COLPITTS OSCILLATORS – EMPIRICAL AND MATHEMATICAL METHODS FOR PREDICTING BEHAVIOR Nicholas J. Stave, B.Sc. Marquette University, 2019 Oscillator circuits perform two fundamental roles in wireless communication – the local oscillator for frequency shifting and the voltage-controlled oscillator for modulation and detection. The Colpitts oscillator is a common topology used for these applications. Because the oscillator must function as a component of a larger system, the ability to predict and control its output characteristics is necessary. Textbooks treating the circuit often omit analysis of output voltage amplitude and output resistance and the literature on the topic often focuses on gigahertz-frequency chip-based applications. Without extensive component and parasitics information, it is often difficult to make simulation software predictions agree with experimental oscillator results. The oscillator studied in this thesis is the bipolar junction Colpitts oscillator in the common-base configuration and the analysis is primarily experimental. The characteristics considered are output voltage amplitude, output resistance, and sinusoidal purity of the waveform.

  • UNIVERSITY of NEVADA, RENO Introduction to Quartz Resonator
    UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA, RENO Introduction to Quartz Resonator Based Electronic Oscillators and Development of Electronic Oscillators Using Inverted-Mesa Etched Quartz Resonators A thesis submitted on partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING By Matthew B. Anthony Thesis Advisor Dr. Indira Chatterjee August 2009 Copyright by Matthew B. Anthony 2009 All Rights Reserved THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by MATTHEW B. ANTHONY entitled Introduction To Quartz Resonator Based Electronic Oscillators And Development Of Electronic Oscillators Using Inverted-Mesa Etched Quartz Resonators be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Indira Chatterjee, Ph.D., Advisor Bruce P. Johnson, Ph.D., Committee Member Scott Talbot, M.S., Committee Member Ronald Phaneuf, Ph.D., Graduate School Representative Marsha H. Read, Ph. D., Associate Dean, Graduate School August, 2009 i ABSTRACT The current work is primarily focused on the topic of the advancement of low phase noise and low jitter quartz crystal based electronic oscillators to frequencies beyond those presently available using quartz resonators that are manufactured using the traditional method that processes the entire sample to a uniform thickness. The method of inverted-mesa etching allows the resonant part of the quartz sample to be made much thinner than the remainder of the sample – enabling higher resonant frequencies to be achieved. The current work will introduce and discuss the importance of phase noise and jitter in electronic oscillator applications such as wireless communication systems and sampled data systems. General oscillator and quartz resonator background will be provided to facilitate the understanding of the oscillator circuit used herein.
